Star Fox fans will agree (hopefully), we want to see General Scales in Super Smash Brothers Brawl! Maybe then, we'll finally be able to beat the crap out of that pesky lizard.



Yay, or Nay?





EDIT: Assuming of course Wolf O'Donnell is already a character :grin:

I'm a Starfox fan, and I wouldn't want a General Scales. And Wolf, while cool, would just be a Fox clone...I say get Andross' nephew Andrew in there, if they can give him some unique techniques. Why Andrew? Because it'd be original and unexpected, that's why.

NO NO NO NO NO! NOT ANDREW PLEASE NOT ANDREW!!! He would NOT be a right character for the game. While I am rooting for Scales and Wolf, it's NOT a good idea. Trust me on that.

Why not Andrew? Let's face it. Wolf would no doubt be a Fox clone...and anyone else from team Starfox would likely be unoriginal too. As for Scales, well, maybe. I just don't like him too much. But Andrew would be fresh, original and maybe even a good fighter.

*screams like a little girl*

AAAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEE!!!! NO!! WE HAVE LOST THEM!!!

...Ehem. The reason I think Andrew would not work is because he's too annoying and he just wouldn't work. But Scales and Wolf are a different story. Wolf doesn't necessarily have to be a Fox clone (in fact it wouldn't be possible) so yeah, Wolf and Scales please!

Nay, if there was to be a Star Fox enemy, it will be Wolf.

I meant will the addition of Star Wolf. :ohwell:

I've heard a lot of different ideas of which Star Fox characters should be added, but Andrew? Though Andrew would be unexpected, I don't think a lot of people would like that idea, me included.

No. There should never be a general scales. EVAR. Brings back memorys of a crap game.

Star wolf im perfectly fine with however. Dunno what they'd do to make him different from Fox tho.

I don't know which game you're calling crap...Adventures is a good game. Not a great one, as it could have been a bit longer and harder, but a good one; especially since it was my first Star Fox game. I missed the 64 games* but now that I have an income, I can finally jump on the banwagon for lots of games.

* = (I didn't get money very often when I was younger, so I didn't get to rent games of my choice but rather the games Mom picked...*flashbacks of Mario Party 1 being rented five times in three months*...NO MOM! NOT MARIO P-P-PARTY AGAIN!)

Wolf and Scales are both good ideas. Just because Star Fox adventures is considered by many to not be very good doesnt mean Scales wouldnt make a good addition to SSBB. (I actually liked Star Fox Adventures)

1. Wolf would not be a fox clone. They were trained in two completely different ways. Wolf is a lawless space cowboy, while Fox was taught how to fly an arwing, and was taught his own special ways of hand to hand combat. Its why it makes sense that Falco has the same moves. They were both part of the Cornerian defence team.

2. Scales would have been able to fight fine. Its not his fault that Andross likes to steal the spotlight like the stupid monkey he is. He could be more like bowser, just faster and minus the fire breath.

Nay, I don't know who he is therefore he is unpopular and proberly one of those 1-game-enmies a deserving starfox enemy would be Wolf O'donnel and I doubt he would be a clone of fox he could easily have his own moveset

Fortex, I thought Starfox was a team of mercinaries, not some sort of Cornerian defence front. And I didn't like Adventures all that much. It just...wasn't a Starfox game, in my opinion. It wasn't an overall bad game, but the Starfox franchise should be mainly about one thing: Flying. Assault was fine, because it combined a little running, a little Landmaster while still keeping nearly all of its gameplay in the air. The original Starfox and 64 are two of my favorite games of all time.

Anyways, I stand by my Andrew suggestion. I think since little is known about him, the developers would have a lot to work with as far as techniques and other attributes go.

Andrew again not a very deserving character, he was introduced in either assault or adventures neither of which I brought I loved DK games on the 64 but GC DK games were crap, SM64 was excellent SMS was terrible, TWW was a huge letdown after OoT I assumed the same happened to the starfox series gamecube was really a flop in general... But Wolf would be the only decent starfox villain suggestion

Actually, the only bad thing about Wind Waker was the sailing and even that was enjoyable after a fasion. Almost every other part of that game was fan-freaking-tastic, including a great, if not THE best fighting engine in a 3D Zelda game, and one of my favorite final Bosses ever to make perfect use of it, in an actual swordfight with Ganondorf. (I have a save that I can load up just so I can play the final boss whenever I want.) The Graphics weren't bad, they were just Cel-shaded.

Anyway, Starfox Adventures. As much as I dislike that game (I think it's a lousy fetch-quest punctuated by boring staff-fights, and they didn't give Fox a Laser) I think General Scales might be an interesting character, even if his boss fight in Adventures was terribly anticlimactic. (Thank god they gave you the Final fight in an Arwing, though.)

Hey guy, Andrew was introduced in Starfox 64 as one of Wolf's crew members. He was replaced by Panther in Assault after Andrew went solo. Read up on your Starfox.

As would I, but only wolf is more reasonable, and is, what I expect.

Though general scales could be an interesting character idea.

Please! NOT ANDREW!! I'd rather have Wolf or Scales, they would both be interesting-though I have to admit I doubt Wolf will be in, since Link is TP Link, and I assume that means they want to think new, remove Sheik, Doc, Pichu, Jigglypuff and probably a few more, including Marth. These are just what I suppose is going to happen, but I hope it won't be so...

Yeah, they'll probably scrap Young Link too, because they could either keep the OOT design from SSBM or design an entirely new young version of TP Link, but that wouldn't work because it would essentially be creating a new character.

I disliked Sunshine. If they give him a FLUDD in Brawl I'll be angrified. It doesn't look like he does though in the video, and I doubt they'll make him a seperate character.

star fox adventures wasnt originally supposed to be a starfox game. it was supposed to be a new game i think called dinosaur planet or something like that. with a new character but since he looked so similar to fox mccloud they just changed it accordingly. that's why it didnt really feel like a star fox game. they threw in Andross or whoever at the end to draw a connection instead of just fighting genral scales. ok way off topic. on topic: i think general scales was a one time character even though he could be a new and interesting character i dont see him getting in. i wouldnt have a problem if he did though. Wolf will most likely be in i thought he would in the last two.

Real Star Fox fans will agree that the only real Star Fox games are for SNES and N64 (and hopefully the new DS version). Any characters from the crappy Game Cube sequels will hopefully be left out and forgotten.

Agreed. The only reason I finished the game was to finally beat him up. Excluding I was bored over the summer of course. And why would you want wolf in? That character was lame. Star wolf was way kooler.

I disagree with that whole Adventures-and-Assault-SUCKED-man-remove-them-from-existence thing. Sure, they had their flaws, but they were still good games (Adventures had one of the worst endings in videogame history and Assault was one of the shortest games ever played, but it was to be expected, after all, it was a shooter, and shooters don't have much of a story, though you have to admit, the whole Aparoid thing was cool, especially the ending!) But anyway, Wolf and Scales would be interesting additions, and look out and mind what you say: I'M A SCALES FANBOY HERE, DEMANDING JUSTICE FOR THE MISSING FIGHT BETWEEN FOX AND HIM!!! But meh, Wolf would do nicely. LOL!

Oh, and don't expect candies and chocolate from Nintendo. They think differently and KNOW both games are considered canon. They MIGHT be included in Brawl, therefore Miyamoto-san begs to differ.

Well Oro, I agree that Adventures sucked in comparison to other Starfox games. But I think they didn't do such a bad job on Assault. The walking levels kind of suck, but the flying levels are ace and the Landmaster is fun to use.

Are you serious? They couldn't be the same person. They had completely different personalities.

Actually they were the same, commonyoshi, only a bit more optimistic. At least that's what I think, considering that 8 years passed with almost no battles between them.
